SYNTHESIS AND PHOTOCHEMIOTHERAPEUTIC ACTIVITY OF THIOPYRANO[2,3-E]INDOL-2-ONES
2004
A series of derivatives of the new ring system thiopyrano[2,3-e]indol-2-one was prepared with the aim of obtaining new photochemotherapeutic drugs. Biological screenings were performed on this new class of photoactivable drugs and a strong antiproliferative effect was observed upon irradiation with UVA light. The compound bearing a methyl substituent at the pyrrole nitrogen resulted as the most interesting showing IC50 in the nanomolar range.
Online Estimation of the Mechanical Parameters of an Induction Machine Using Speed Loop characteristics and Recursive Least Square Technique
2022
This paper presents a novel approach for estimation of mechanical parameters, inertia and friction coefficient of an Induction Machine (IM) using speed loop characteristics and Recursive Least Square (RLS) estimator. Using the 5th order dynamic equation for Induction Machine and the forgetting factor based RLS algorithm the technique herein proposed employs the speed of the machine and the torque as the inputs for the estimator. Results obtained compares the estimated parameters with the actual parameters under multiple step varying and exponentially varying scenarios. Upon analyzing the results, the validity and the effectiveness of the proposed identification technique is confirmed
Study of TiO2 nanomembranes obtained by an induction heated MOCVD reactor
2015
Abstract Nanostructures of TiO2 were grown using the metal oxide chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) technique. The procedure used induction heating on a graphite susceptor. This specific feature and the use of cobalt and ferrocene catalysts resulted in nanomembranes never obtained by common MOCVD reactors. The present study discusses the preparation of TiO2 nanomembranes and the dependence of nanomembrane structure and morphology on growth parameters.
Computing Real-Time Dynamic Origin/Destination Matrices from Vehicle-to-Infrastructure Messages Using a Multi-Agent System
2012
Dynamic Origin/Destination matrices are one of the most important parameters for efficient and effective transportation system management. These matrices describe the vehicle flow between different points within a region of interest for a given period of time. Usually, dynamic O/D matrices are estimated from traffic counts provided by induction loop detectors, home interview and/or license plate surveys. Unfortunately, estimation methods take O/D flows as time invariant for a certain number of intervals of time, which cannot be suitable for some traffic applications. However, the advent of information and communication technologies (e.g., vehicle-to-infrastructure dedicated short range comm…
Enhancing Speed Loop PI Controllers with Adaptive Feed-forward Neural Networks: Application to Induction Motor Drives
2022
This paper proposes the idea to improve the performance of the speed loop PI controller by using feed-forward and adaptive control actions. Indeed, when the system to be controlled is required to track a rapidly changing reference frame, higher bandwidth is usually required, making the system more sensitive to noise and consequently less robust. In such cases, to achieve a better performance in reference tracking while keeping noise rejection capacity, one idea is to use a feed-forward controller, employed to enhance the required tracking, leaving the feedback action to stabilize the system and suppress higher frequency disturbance. As such, this paper analysis the classical PI based field …
Extended complex Kalman filter for sensorless control of an induction motor
2014
Abstract This paper deals with the design of an extended complex Kalman filter (ECKF) for estimating the state of an induction motor (IM) model, and for sensorless control of systems employing this type of motor as an actuator. A complex-valued model is adopted that simultaneously allows a simpler observability analysis of the system and a more effective state estimation. The observability analysis of this model is first performed by assuming that a third order ECKF has to be designed, by neglecting the mechanical equation of the IM model, which is a valid hypothesis when the motor is operated at constant rotor speed. It is shown that this analysis is more effective and easier than the one …
Plakana profila divslāņu indukcijas spoles izveide
2015
Darbā tiek izstrādāta indukcijas spole ar jauna tipa ģeometriju. Galvenais mērķis ir izveidot spoli tā, lai pie tās pēc iespējas tuvāk varētu novietot pastāvīgo magnētu sistēmu un maksimizētu spoles inducēto lauku. Spoles izmēru izvēlei, veikti analītiski novērtējumi. Izveidots spoles ģeometriskajām īpašībām atbilstošs skaitliskais modelis, un modelētie dati salīdzināti ar cita veida ģeometrijas spolēm. Eksperimentālais modelis izveidots laboratorijas apstākļos un tiek pielāgots jau esošam strāvas avotam. Ap spoli izveidota noslēgta cikla ūdens dzesēšanas sistēma. Apskatīta spoles izdalītā un ar dzesēšanas sistēmas palīdzību aizvadītā siltuma bilance. Veikta skaitliska un eksperimentāla mag…
Are attachment dimensions associated with infertility-related stress in couples undergoing their first IVF treatment? A study on the individual and c…
2012
study question: Are attachment anxiety and avoidance dimensions in female and male partners in couples seeking infertility treat- ment associated with her and his infertility-related stress? summary answer: Attachment dimensions are significantly associated with several aspects of infertility stress in couples undergoing IVF treatment. what is known and what this paper adds: Attachment dimensions of anxiety and avoidance (where highly anxious individuals fear rejection and are preoccupied with maintaining proximity to their partner and highly avoidant individuals are uncomfortable with intimacy and prefer to maintain distance from their partner) may influence the well being of individuals u…
Serum luteinizing hormone in patients undergoing ovarian stimulation with gonadotropin-releasing hormone antagonists and recombinant follicle-stimula…
2004
The serum LH was determined on days 3, 6, and 8 of stimulation and on the day of hCG in 110 normogonadotropic patients undergoing controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) for IVF induced with GnRH antagonists and recombinant FSH, creating three groups of patients according to Tukey's hinges (percentiles 25 and 75) for each determination. No differences were observed between the number of oocytes recovered or the fertilization, implantation, and pregnancy rates (PR) of the groups, although patients with high serum LH levels during stimulation showed significantly higher serum E2 levels on the day of hCG.
Moderate ovarian stimulation does not increase the incidence of human embryo chromosomal abnormalities in in vitro fertilization cycles.
2012
A high chromosomal abnormalities rate has been observed in human embryos derived from in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatments. The real incidence in natural cycles has been poorly studied, so whether this frequency may be induced by external factors, such as use of gonadotropins for ovarian stimulation, remains unknown.We conducted a prospective cohort study in a University-affiliated private infertility clinic with a comparison between unstimulated and stimulated ovarian cycles in the same women. Preimplantation genetic screening by fluorescence in situ hybridization was performed in all viable d 3 embryos.The primary objective was to compare the incidence of embryo chromosomal abnormaliti…
